Arsenal's Kai Havertz Faces Online Abuse After FA Cup Loss

Posted : 13 January 2025

Sophia, the wife of Arsenal striker Kai Havertz, has shared disturbing screenshots of abusive messages she received on social media following Sunday's FA Cup defeat to Manchester United. The abuse, which included threats to their unborn child, was triggered by Havertz's missed opportunity to win the game in normal time and his penalty miss in the subsequent shootout, with Manchester United securing a 5-3 victory after a 1-1 draw.
 

Sophia posted the offensive messages on her Instagram story, expressing her shock and disappointment. One message she shared showed the extent of the harassment, prompting her to ask the perpetrator to feel ashamed of their actions. In another post, she urged for more respect, encouraging others to be better in their behavior and interactions online.

Arsenal has condemned the abuse and reported the incidents to the police. The club is also working with a specialist data firm to track down the individuals responsible for the harmful messages, taking a firm stance against online harassment.
 

Kai and Sophia Havertz, who have been together since 2018 and married last year, announced in November that they are expecting a child. The couple has faced undue vitriol following the match, highlighting ongoing issues with online abuse directed at public figures and their families.
